Chapter 187 Wake Up
Niu Niu felt like she was lying in a cloud.
Her whole body was warm and she would not fall no matter how she rolled around.
There were birds singing and flowers blooming all around, and the sunlight shone through the leaves on her face.
There was just one thing that was not good. Niu Niu reached out and touched her stomach, which was rumbling.
"Niuniu, Niuniu, do you want to stay and play with me?" a voice asked softly.
Countless voices shouted at the same time: "Stay! Niuniu, stay!"
When Niuniu heard this, she didn't think there was anything wrong, but asked, "Is there anything to eat if we stay here?"
"Find food, find food!" countless voices shouted.
Niu Niu sat up from the grass with great effort, and suddenly a stone-paved path appeared under her feet. Niu Niu stepped on it and kept walking forward.
Suddenly, fog rose up all around.
Niu Niu looked at this scene and suddenly became scared.
"Go forward, go forward!" The voice suddenly became gloomy.
Niu Niu was almost scared to tears.
Her feet seemed to be fixed in place, and she didn't dare to move forward at all.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" the voice was still urging.
Niu Niu pursed her lips and dared not move forward.
"Niuniu, Niuniu!" A soft voice fell into her ears.
After a while, Niu Niu heard the sound of water.
"Go left, Niuniu, come quickly!" a soft voice urged.
Niu Niu looked to the left and saw that the originally soft grass had turned into a deep abyss.
Niu Niu was very scared, but she instinctively trusted the voice. She made up her mind and took a step to the left.
The expected weightlessness did not happen. Instead, a small pond appeared. The water in the pond was crystal clear, and there were ten lotus leaves of different sizes growing on it. A small red fish was swimming under the leaves.
When the little fish saw Niu Niu, he jumped directly from the water into her hands.
"How did you get yourself like this?" Xiao Yuer asked softly.
Niu Niu lowered her head and saw that her originally chubby little hands had now become as dry as chicken claws.
"I'm sorry." Niu Niu felt guilty.
"Forget it, how can I bear to blame you? If you are hungry, just drink some water and don't pick the lotus leaves." said the little fish.
Niu Niu originally wanted to pick some lotus leaves and scoop up some water to drink, but after hearing this, she could only lie down by the pond and drink water.
I don’t know how long I drank, but the pond in front of Niuniu was empty. She was about to cry again: “I’m sorry, I drank the pond dry, will you die?”
Xiao Yuer said, "It's okay, go back quickly."
The pond in front of Niu Niu gradually disappeared.
"Wake up, wake up!"
Niu Niu opened her eyes and saw Zhang Yunniang's worried eyes.
"Mom..." As soon as Niu Niu opened her mouth, she was frightened by her own dark and hoarse voice.
When Zhang Yunniang saw Niu Niu wake up, tears immediately fell from her eyes.
But she didn't have time to be sad. Instead, she quickly stood up and shouted outside the curtain: "Doctor, doctor, please come and see my daughter! She's awake!"
A middle-aged doctor in his forties strode in, then sat down beside Niu Niu's bed and took the girl's pulse.
"Little girl, do you know that you almost scared your family to death? You were in a coma for three days, and your mother cried for three whole days, and her eyes were swollen from crying." said the middle-aged doctor.
Niu Niu looked towards Zhang Yuniang and saw her mother's red and swollen eyes. She curled her lips and tears were about to fall.
"Oh, be good and don't drop any gold beads." The doctor coaxed.
Niu Niu tried hard to hold back her tears.
The middle-aged doctor carefully felt Zhang Yunniang's pulse for a long time, then twisted his beard and said to her, "When she was unconscious before, her pulse was like a candle about to go out. She was in danger for a while. Now that she has woken up, her pulse is strong. You can't even tell that she was on the verge of death."
Zhang Yunniang asked, "Doctor, is it completely healed?"
The doctor nodded.
Zhang Yunniang hurriedly asked, "Doctor, please tell me what medicine you want to prescribe for this child. I'll go and boil the medicine."
The doctor shook his head and said, "No need to prescribe medicine for now, but she has just recovered from a serious illness, so in order to avoid any more setbacks, she should come every morning for the next few days."
Zhang Yunniang breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, I'll listen to you."
The curtain on the door was lifted, and Gu Mingda walked in carrying a young man wearing a silver mask on his back.
"I heard that Niu Niu woke up!" Gu Mingda said excitedly.
Then he gently placed the young man on his back on the bed beside him.
"Niuniu, are you feeling unwell? Is there anything you want to eat or play? Tell Daddy now."
Gu Mingda spoke one sentence after another, wishing he could present everything he could think of to Niu Niu.
Niuniu shook her head slowly, then looked at her father and said, "Dad, you and mom haven't slept well recently. There are so many red bloodshot eyes."
Gu Mingda looked at his daughter's considerate and well-behaved appearance, and his heart melted into a ball of water. In order not to make his daughter worry, he shook his head and said, "Daddy didn't have a bad sleep at night, but he ate too much spicy food these two days, and his eyes are red from the spiciness."
Such lies can only fool children.
Niuniu said thoughtfully: "It turns out that spicy food can make your eyes red. Niuniu should eat less spicy food in the future."
The middle-aged doctor said, "During this period, the diet should be light."
Zhang Yuniang had gone out when Gu Mingda came in. When she came back, she was holding two bowls of rice porridge and a few side dishes.
She handed one of the meals to Gu Mingda.
"Niuniu, daddy will go feed your brother first." Gu Mingda said, turned around, and sat down next to the silver-faced boy on the bed opposite Niuniu with the food.
Zhang Yunniang brought another portion of food and fed it to Niu Niu.
Niuniu asked in a low voice: "Is the little brother injured?"
Zhang Yunniang explained softly, "This is the young general who saved your father earlier. You can call him Brother Xie. He injured his hands and feet earlier and is recovering here. He will come to Beijing with us later."
Niuniu nodded obediently and said, "Thank you, brother, for saving my father. You are my benefactor. Niuniu and my parents will take care of him together in the future."
Zhang Yunniang was still afraid that Niuniu would ask her why Brother Xie wore a mask. Fortunately, Niuniu was always well-behaved and would not do anything embarrassing.
Before Xie Xingchuan handed the spoon from Gu Mingda's hand, he took off the mask on his face, revealing the hideous and criss-crossing scars on the left side of his face. He slightly turned his body.
But even so, from Niu Niu's perspective, she could see half of Xie Xingchuan's profile.
Xie Xingchuan was prepared for the little girl to cry loudly, but after waiting for a while, he did not hear the expected cry.
Niuniu's eyes were full of distress, and she asked, "Mom, is Brother Xie also injured on his face? Was he also injured while saving Dad?"
Her voice was not loud, but Xie Xingchuan was a martial artist with sharp ears and eyes. When he heard this, the coldness on his face almost disappeared.
